Marketing Front End Engineer (Austin, TX)
📍 Location: Austin, TX (Downtown HQ)
💼 Type: Full-time
💰 Compensation: Competitive salary + equity + premium benefits
Most frontend engineers build products. Here, you’ll build the growth engine. At Files.com, every landing page, funnel, and performance improvement you ship directly influences pipeline, revenue, and how enterprise IT leaders see our brand. Millions of visitors a year will experience your work — and you’ll ship it fast, in modern frameworks, without waiting on someone else’s backlog.
This is a hands-on engineering role embedded in the Marketing team. Instead of relying on Engineering for every change, you’ll give Marketing the ability to move quickly and self-sufficiently. From spinning up a new landing page in Next.js to optimizing site performance on Vercel, to building reusable slices in Prismic, your work will make Marketing faster, smarter, and more effective.
If you’re an engineer who loves modern frontend tooling, who sweats Core Web Vitals and conversion rates, and who wants to see immediate, measurable results from your code, this is your seat.
Who We Are
We’re Files.com, a profitable, founder-led SaaS company powering secure file transfer and automation for 4,000+ enterprise brands you know: Marc Jacobs, GrubHub, Michelin, Hot Topic, Stamps.com, Planet Fitness, KFC, and more.
We’ve built a $35M+ business with just 70 people by hiring smart, disciplined, high-output teammates who act fast and own outcomes. Backed by $46.5M from Riverwood Capital, we’re scaling intentionally — and this role is critical to that growth.
Our Austin HQ is in the heart of downtown with sweeping views of the Capitol, a private gym, and all the amenities of a world-class workspace. It’s the center of our Marketing team’s creative energy — where you’ll collaborate daily to bring campaigns from idea to live site.
What Makes This Role Different
⚡ High-Scale Impact – This isn’t “just pixels.” Your work will be directly tied to pipeline and revenue. From interactive demos to conversion funnels, your code will influence how thousands of IT leaders see our product.
🛠 Modern Stack, Real Autonomy – We build with Next.js, TypeScript, React, Prismic, and Vercel. No bloated templates, no legacy CMS hell. You’ll have the freedom to architect for speed, SEO, and scalability.
🎨 Design x Engineering Intersection – You’ll partner with designers and marketers to bring creative to life — transforming campaigns into polished, high-performance sites where every decision balances taste and measurable impact.
📐 System Builders – You won’t just code one-off pages. You’ll create reusable slices, components, and patterns that make the entire team faster and more consistent.
📊 Testing & Performance Obsessed – Core Web Vitals, accessibility, A/B tests — these aren’t side notes. Every optimization drives conversion and revenue. Marketing Engineers here sweat the details because the details are dollars.
🤝 Collaborative & Visible – You’ll sit at the heart of Marketing, collaborating daily with Growth, Product Marketing, Content, and Design. Your work won’t disappear into the background — it will be seen, measured, and celebrated.
